1 Timothy 3: Deacon Qualification

What role do Deacons play in the body of Christ? What are the qualifications of Deacons and how has this been abused in the past?

Join Pastor Robert Haling, Calvary Baptist Church, as he preaches from 1 Timothy on this important issue.

"Deacons likewise must be dignified, not double-tongued,not addicted to much wine, not greedy for dishonest gain. They must hold the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience. And let them also be tested first; then let them serve as deacons if they prove themselves blameless. Their wives likewise must be dignified, not slanderers, but sober-minded, faithful in all things. Let deacons each be the husband of one wife, managing their children and their own households well. For those who serve well as deacons gain a good standing for themselves and also great confidence in the faith that is in Christ Jesus." 1 Timothy 3:8-13
